What our clients are saying

"Over the past 7 years, Rural Funds Management Limited, as the manager of the ASX listed Rural Funds Group (ASX:RFF), has engaged various members of the CBRE Agribusiness team to complete valuation reports for horticultural, cattle, cropping and sugar cane assets. During this time, we have found the team members to have a sound understanding of the different asset types that have been valued and also the markets that they operate within. We have found them to be professional, practical and commercial in addressing any issues arising and timely in completing the reports. We would have no hesitation is recommending the CBRE Agribusiness Valuation and Advisory team to any prospective client seeking large scale agricultural valuations."

David Thomson, Senior Business Manager - Rural Funds Management

"Over the past 10 years, New Forests Asset Management has engaged various members of the CBRE Agribusiness team to complete independent valuation reports for a range of forestry land assets across Australia from Western Australia to Tasmania, with Victoria and South Australia in between. Valuations have been required for acquisition and disposition purposes, and annual financial reporting. CBRE has a significant and well researched database of comparable sales and always provides their reports within the agreed timeframe and to a high professional standard. CBRE is also very responsive and diligent in answering queries on their reports, and providing general market information outside formal reports. For these reasons I would strongly recommend the services of the CBRE Agribusiness Valuation & Advisory team for independent valuation services for rural land in Australia."

Phil Mason, Director Operations, ANZFF - New Forests Asset Management

"Warakirri Asset Management Ltd and its associated Agricultural Platforms has engaged various members of the CBRE valuation team over the last 6 years to complete pre-acquisition valuation and valuation reports for our broadacre cropping, dairy and horticulture assets. We have always found the members of the team to have a deep understanding of the assets they were valuing along with the broader local market. We have found them to be professional, practical and commercial in addressing any issues arising and timely in completing the reports. I would strongly recommend the services of the CBRE Agribusiness Valuation and Advisory team to any prospective client seeking agricultural valuations."
